Murphy's Law, was it?
The exams were over. I had been a relatively quiet week... I had absolutely no reason whatsoever to believe that I would not be able to go online. And what happens? We go away for the weekend!
When I think I won't make it one week, I end up posting. When I am absolutely, positively hella certain that there would be no way in hell that I could possibly miss the weekend, I do. No postey.

Oh well.
So. We went to a town called 'Strand' last weekend...
We don't go away all that often, so you won't see me complaining TOO much! XD
The exams had ended that Wednesday, so that was out of the way. Thursday was also a public holiday, so the school decided they might as well give us the Friday off aswell. (See, miracles DO happen). That's how we ended up going. We stayed in a flat with an awesome view...

We had a balcony, so this is basically what we saw most of the time:

Yup.
Nothing but a four lane highway between us and the beach. A shame that the water was a bit dirty, so we couldn't go swimming. Also, the whole "winter-season" thing can be a bit of a bitch when it comes to water temperature! >;D

We got the chance to drive along the infamous Chapman's Peak road on our way back, since we were driving via Cape Town.

The road goes along the side of the mountain there... it's a shame I had to resize this pic so much... if you can make out the brown line along the mountain in the above picture, you're basically looking at a section of the road.

I wish you could see it. It's a shame that they've been having so many problems with rockfalls over the years. But it's so beautiful there, they had no choice but to keep the road open to the public!

Well, that's my post.
School's finally out for the holidays over here, since yesterday. I got my report card back, and I'm pleased to say that I've got one helluva grin on my face right about now.

Cheers!
OMHFS! You read through everything?! Have some pie!
